Quotes
“Both teams were keen to win in what was a rather open game – for this reason in particular, I enjoyed most of the match from our team’s perspective, but we didn’t score a second goal, and Danny Welbeck finished the game excellently,” said Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola after the defeat to Brighton.
“We never talk about the league table – that’s usually the journalists who discuss it.”
Head-to-Head
In head-to-head stats, Tottenham and Bournemouth have met in 16 matches across all competitions since 1957. Spurs have claimed 10 wins compared to four for the Cherries, while two games have been drawn.
